CALIFORNIA.

The Pasadena Star devotes nearly a
column to report of an elegant recep-
ton given at the parlors of the Hotel
Carlton, by the Universalist parish to the
newly-elected pastor, Rev. E. L. Conger,
and his wife. Some two hundred of the
leading citizens of all denominations and
Of no denomination came to welcome the
new worker. One marked feature of the
occasion, was the conspicuous absence of
every pastor in the city, though each had
a special invitation from the committee.
The want of courtesy manifested by
the older pastors was subject of fire.
quent remark by those present. After
an hour or more Of Misunderstanding, Prof.
j. ID. Yocum, as master of ceremonies
gave a brief sketch OF the wonderful
growth of the new parish, its present
prospects, and called upon A. O. Fish,
recently OF Racine, Wis, an old friend of
Mr. CoDger, who welcomed him and his
wife in warm and fitting words to the
new field of labor. Rev. Eli Fay, OF Los
Angeles, extended word of welcome
from the Unitarians on the Pacific slope;
and Rev. Mr.. Conger responded to all
the kind words and the hearty welcome,
thanking all for the warm welcome ex.
tended, and accepting the responsibility
which was placed upon him with the de-
termination to win among all men a
broad stand for those cardinal doctrines
which are embodied in the Fatherhood
of God and the brotherhood of man.
The music, the decorations and the re-
freshments reflected the greatest credit
on the ladies Of the parish, and places
them among the front rank of church
workers. The whole affair was pronounc.
ed a rare event in Pasadena life.

On the Authority of Reason, the Faith

Thomas Allin, of England. Published
by Elliott Stock, and sold by The Uni

Branch. Price $1.25. The second edi-
ton Of this valuable book has been en-
larged, and is highly commended by the
English and American press, as the fol-
lowing brief extracts will show:
"The popular revolt against the doctrine of
the future endless punishment of the wicked
is one of the most striking features of the age.
The book before us is another able
contribution to the humane and rational view
of the subject. The subject is discussed
mainly in the light of Scripture teaching.
The authors aim is to show that Scripture.
rightly translated and interpreted, renders no
support to the common belief. but on the con-
trary distinctly sustains the faith in the final
salvation of all men. We heartily welcome
this book, and commend it to the notice of all
who take an interest in the subject, which it
ably and temporarily discusses. The In

This book is a plea for Universalism, the
ultimate triumph of Christ in the recovering
of the human race from the effects of moral
transgression. The publication of such books
as this, and their number daily increases,
shows that the opinion is gaining hold of

II is impossible not TO be struck by the col

from them are bound to show that his arrange

CINCINNATI LETTER.

The Cincinnati Universalist church is
conspicuous among other reasons, from
the fact that it is one OF our Oldest par
ishes in the West. Established in 1927,
nine years before st. Pauls was organic
ed in Chicago, it stood in those early
days of bigotry and prejudice, as an al
most solitary beacon amid the surround
ing theological darkness.
Among it's pastors have been some of
the most eminent and gifted ministers of
our faith, who by their spokenand print
ed words wrought valiantly for the up
building of our cause. Here preached
the eloquent John A. Gurley, DR.. I. ID.
Williamson, the astute theologian; that
tireless missionary preacher, George
Rogers; Abel O. Thomas, the matchless
debater; while the fervent words OF Drs.
G. W. Quimby and j. g. Adams are still
cherished by those who honor their
memory. Several of our most efficient
and devoted ministers still in the field
were also settled in Cincinnati, where
they will always be held in high esteem.
For some years past the population
has been steadily drifting away from
Plum street, where the third church edi-
flee was built in 1853, and that section of
the city is more and more being devoted
to business purposes. From this cause
chiefly, the audiences are not as large as
might be expected in SO great city, in
which there is beyond doubt very con-
siderable Universalist element. Our peo-
pie are coming to realize the fact that
change of location must be made before
we can regain our former prosperity and
influence. Just what to do and where to
locate is no doubt a knotty problem. H.
deed it would be impossible to select any
one place which would be convenient for
all; but l believe our people will have
consecrated common sense, and be will
ing TO forego personal preference for the
largest prosperity Of our church. 1t is
encouraging that our people are looking
forward to a better future, and before
many months have passed we hope to re-
port that efficient steps have been taken
to secure it. Meanwhile the parish is
united and Jealous, new families are
coming in, and the audiences are of en-
couragIng size.

val was held in the vestry, which was

BEAUTIFUL SONGS"
PROF. STRAUSS NEW BOOK.
Good Music and Excellent Hymns
FOR THE SUNDAY SCHOOL.

BEAUTIFUL SONGS" is the name of new
Sunday-school singing book. by the popular
composer and compiler of music, PROF. S. w -.
STRAUB of Chicago. The hymns in this book
are of a high Christian character and possess
more than ordinary merit. while the tunes
are rich in melody and harmony. They have
a swing andspontaneity about them that can
not fail 10 inspire every one who sings or hears
them. While they are easy, they are not
trashy" nor incorrectly composed. The mel
odies do not run so high as to injure chill
dren's voices, as many do. The large andcle
type used in "BEAUTIFUL SONGS" is a feature
that is unusual and very important.
"BEAUTIFUL SONGS" contains 1872 pages,
and is well printed and strongly bound. with
handsome covers. We offer it to our Univer-
salist sunday-schools, believing it win prove
as popular and well-adapted to their wants as
the other works of this well-known composer,
author of'THE LIVING FoUNTAIN," "MoRNING
LIGHT" and Grown OF GLORY"

DEDICATION CERTIFICATES.

We call the attention of our pastors to
these certificates which they will find con-
venient and acceptable to give to the pa
rents of children dedicated on Chlldren's

These are elegantly printed and on fine
tinted paper, each being supplied with q
beautiful and nicely fitted envelope. They
are printed from engravings gotten nm
specially by Rev. DR., Gunnison, of Brook

garded as superior in taste and beauty TO
anything of the kind ever published. All
who have seen them say they are just the
thing.

CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN OHIO.

Woodstock, o., June Is, 1SS7.-[To
the Editor of The UNIvERsALIsT. EOn
Wednesday evening, of last week, our
church at Flint had q strawberry festival
that was a success. financially and social
ly. But few churches and Sunday-schools
have more energetic and faithful work
ers. The acceptance of the call to the
pastorate at Bryan, by Rev. Mrs. A. e.
Danforth, leaves them without pastor,
but we trust that this condition will not
continue long.
Columbus-New Church.
We have good news from Columbus.
Our friends in the capital city are NOV
ing for their new house of worship, which
will be erected on lot adjoining Star
ling Medical College, on East State
street. Ground is to be broken in few
days, for the annex, which will oe used
for all church purposes until the main
building is completed, and it is hoped to
have the annex done by November /.
The annex will seat about three hundred
persons, above and below. This news is
a prophecy of better things for our de-
nomination in the larger cities of the
Buckeye State, and the renewal of regu-
lar services at Columbus will be an ap-
propriate commemoration of the Centen-
ial year of the State.
We have received the report of Rev.
Fl. L. Garfield, State Superintendent, for
May. Although it's results in net cash, are
not so large as those of former months, it
presents evidence of the solid work being
done for the church by this officer. One
item is especially pleasing. 1t comes in
the form Of bequest of one thousand
dollars for the Permanent Fund.
We have sent notices to persons who
subscribed to the Permanent Fund at
the Convention at Westville in 1884.
who are still owing, that their subscrip-
lions are now due. A number have paid,
in whole or in part, and we trust that
those who have not done so, will be
prompt in paying, so that the money may
be placed at interest. We will continue
to notify all persons who have made sub
scriptions or given notes, as the same, or
the interest thereon becomes due. The
Convention voted that all interest shall be
devoted to the immediate work of the
Convention hereafter.
We regret to learn that the Pan
Handle Railroad Company, through it's
Agent at Urbana, refused to honor the
certificates the agents at other points, on
same road, had given 10 persons paying
full fare, going to the Convention at
North Lewisburg. For this we are in no
way responsible, as we advertised the ar
rangement by authority of the printed
circulars of Mr.. Geo. H. Daniels, Vice
Chairman Of the Central Traffic Assoeia-
ton at Chicago. The circular referred to
was directed to all agents OF roads belong
ing to the association to furnish and honor
all such certificates. The matter has been
referred to Mr.. Daniels, and he advises
all persons holding certificates to write
to e. A. Ford, General Passenger Agent
of the Pan Handle Road, Pittsburg, and
request the return of the money ovsrpaid.

A superintendent of prominent Sun.
day-school in the city recently appointed
a committee, consisting of two ladies and
two gentlemen, to gather evergreens for
Children's Sunday. The quartet went
forth and encountered rain and mud and
brambles, and after journey OF some
eighteen miles, reached town with their
burden near the midnight hour. Their
evergreens were too wet to go into the
church, SO they thought they would place
them in the Superintendent yard. They
proceeded to do 80; but behind the cur
tains peered two searching eyes that had
been opened by curious sounds. They
watched the mysterious figures till all
had been placed upon the lawn. Then a
voice rolled forth in deep cultural tones,
indicative of revolver support, "Sirs, re-
move that debris or you will fare the
worse" All was still for moment.
Then came forth the plaintive reply :
CDR, we have toiled through the day and
overcome many obstacles at your COM
mand, and now you threateningly drive
us with our treasure from your door.
The mystery was solved, and the voice
with the revolver's support, softened as
if supported by the music OF an Eolian
harp, and the tribute of the tired toilers
was accepted. But tell the story not in
Gath, for the Doctor would hear it not.

Evangelist Wills"
an ex convict, has recently gone on a pill
grimage to the governor of New York, to
seek the pardon of man who was incar-
cerated in the Auburn State prison some
thirty years ago, Wills being an inmate
at the same time, serving term for
burglary. During their confinement,
with two others they concocted plan to
escape. at a certain hour the keeper was
to be knocked down, and then they would
run for it. When the day came for the
venture, Wills was removed to another
part of the building, and the other three
went on with the plot; but instead of
knocking the keeper senseless, as they
intended, the blow killed him. They
were all captured again and the dealer of
the blow hung, the other two sentenced
for life. When Wills left the prison he
reformed, and has been an evangelist for
several years. Much of this time he has
been planning for the release of one of
those life-sentenced men, realizing that
murder was not intended and the punish
ment of thirty years was terrible pen
atty for the crime committed. He de-
scribes his recent visit to Gov. Hill very
graphically, and relates with touching
pathos, the meeting in Auburn prison,
after thirty years separation, the men
who had plotted with him. They are
both to be pardoned, and the evangelist
says il they do not get employment, he
will take them to his home in Detroit and
care for them. This all looks like real
Christianity, genuine conversion to dis
with Jesus.
